Chapter 164 Buried Alive
what to do?
Jiang Anning made a gesture to run away, then picked up the stick and ran away quietly.
Aunt Fang saw Sui Ran and hurried to follow.
After running far away, Aunt Fang and Sui Ran came back to their senses. They threw the sticks in their hands in fear, with lingering fear in their hearts.
"What should we do, An Ning, it's all my fault, then Zhou Ran won't find us then, right?"
Even Aunt Fang, who was used to being prestigious in the village, was in a state of panic at this moment.
After all, this was the first time that she had done something illegal, and Aunt Fang was very confused.
She was afraid that Zhou Ran would come to her senses and go to the government to sue her, and she was even more afraid that this matter would affect An Ning and Sui Ran.
"It's all my fault!"
Aunt Fang felt guilty: "It's fine if Zhou Ran comes to blackmail you for money. I'll just give it to him. If he goes to report to the government, you can just say that you're not with me. Anyway, I can't implicate you."
"Auntie..." Sui Ran was panicking in her heart. She wanted to persuade people not to be so pessimistic and think about the good things, but she couldn't say anything so optimistic.
Jiang Anning looked surprised: "What did Auntie say? Today we took a ride on Uncle Liu's oxcart from Xiatang Village and came back from the county town. When we arrived in the town, it was already very late, so we hurried home slowly. Let’s go and finally get home before the moon passes over the treetops.”
Aunt Fang was startled, and even Sui Ran looked at Jiang Anning in surprise.
Jiang Anning's face was hidden in the night, making it difficult to tell whether she was happy or angry.
But inexplicably, Sui Ran felt a little cold.
"We have never met Zhou Ran, let alone... If he really dares to come to ask for an explanation, then we might as well argue with him carefully to see whether it was because he accidentally hit him with a stick or the punishment was serious. The penalty for colluding with a prostitute is serious.”
Jiang Anning's voice was cold, revealing a fierceness.
Aunt Fang immediately stopped panicking.
"Yeah, even if I really beat him up, so what! He framed my man and almost broke up our family. I just beat him up, which is already light. Besides, who can prove it? Where did I hit him?”
Aunt Fang calmed down and adjusted her clothes and hair: "You can't just listen to his words and convict me without any evidence."
"Not to mention if we really want to talk about the truth, what he did in Zhou Ran would be an exaggeration even if he was cut to pieces with a thousand knives!"
Cutting to pieces by a thousand cuts would not be a problem, but the reason why secret prostitution houses have a hidden word is because it is a shady industry.
Prostitution was explicitly prohibited by the imperial court.
Although, officials are only prohibited from prostitution.
Although there is no explicit prohibition for ordinary people, even if ordinary people want to go to Fireworks and Willow Lane to have fun, they must go to places such as flower buildings and painting boats that have obtained government permission.
An important aspect of obtaining the government license is to check the pulse of all employees in the store regularly every month, including those who wash clothes in the backyard, do odd jobs, and even those who pour night fragrance.
Generally, it is the doctor from Anjifang who is responsible for looking, hearing, asking and confirming the health of the practitioners.
Naturally, this clandestine prostitute has not obtained official qualifications, and most of the men and women who come out to sell themselves as entertainers have unknown origins.
Maybe they were kidnapped, maybe they were tricked.
Or they may have been sold by parents or relatives, or they may be suffering from diseases.
In short, there are no legal procedures.
Every year, the government destroys many such brothels from time to time.
The imperial court explicitly prohibited the existence of secret prostitution parlors, and buying and selling was the same crime.
If Zhou Ran really dares to go to the government to sue them, I dare not say whether the justice of this fight can be obtained. He colluded with the secret prostitutes and stayed in the secret prostitutes many times. He also deceived and introduced men from the same village to the secret prostitutes and had sex with the secret prostitutes. The boss of the hotel has some collusion...
Fines and slaps are inevitable.
If there were more people with unknown origins in the brothel, Zhou Ran would have to travel three hundred miles at least.
To be more serious...it might really be death by a thousand cuts.
Thinking of this, Aunt Fang and Sui Ran breathed a sigh of relief and stopped panicking.
Aunt Fang was even more heroic: "If he really dares to come to my door, I will respect him as a man!"
"When the time comes, I will have to give him a few more brooms so that he will never dare to do such immoral things again!"
He completely lost sight of the panic he had just shown, trying to save money and avoid disaster.
"My Jiang Genshan is so screwed up that he wants to give money to settle things. In fact, for people like this, as long as you give money the first time, there will be a second time soon."
< br>
"As long as this kind of thing opens a hole, don't expect that the hole will be healed one day."
"Those things that suck human blood will only tear your wounds wider and wider."
"Until your life is taken away by them..."
Aunt Fang seemed to have been hit in the head. She forgot that she had just subconsciously wanted to spend money to eliminate the disaster. She said with a tiger face: "Even if your life is lost, they will not feel that they have gone too far."
"Instead, they will complain about how you are so useless, causing them to have no source of income."
Aunt Fang was still frightened: "It's okay, girl An Ning, you woke me up, otherwise I might not know how I would be manipulated by that bastard Zhou Ran in the future."
"That's how things are in this world. As long as you give money for the first time, when you want to wake up and resist again, your enemy will become everyone."
"Not only do you have to fight against those who persecute you, you also have to fight against those who think your victims are guilty!"
"They won't know how much grievances you have experienced during this period, and what kind of struggles you have gone through. They will only think that since you are reasonable, why should you give money the first time?"
"Since you gave money for the first time, it means you also have a problem."
Aunt Fang patted her chest in fear: "It's so dangerous, so dangerous. I was almost pulled into the endless abyss and died in pain."
Will the pain end on its own?
Jiang Anning suddenly felt a pain in her heart. The heartbreaking pain quickly spread to her limbs and bones, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't make a sound.
"An Ning, thank you."
Under the night, Aunt Fang didn't know what was going on. She walked over and took Jiang Anning's hand. She felt very deeply: "Thanks to you, otherwise Aunt Fang would be afraid of..."
The usually strong and unyielding person was now extremely fragile, silently lying on someone's shoulder and choking.
Jiang Anning's body froze slightly in place. After a while, she finally seemed to have regained her consciousness. She found the strength to move her limbs and gently patted the person's back: "It's okay. It's all over. Fortunately." …”
Everything is over.
She felt that the shackles lingering in her heart seemed to be lighter. She took a breath and persuaded others: "Let's go home quickly. It's getting late. If we go back earlier, we can rest earlier."< br>
"Hey, yes! It's time to go back and have a good rest. I'm afraid there will be a tough battle to fight tomorrow."
Who knows if Zhou Ran will really be shameless and fearlessly confront them head-on?
He is a stinking stone in the latrine. It will be nothing if he rots and stinks.
But they are all noble.
You can't spend your whole life because of such a rotten person.
Jiang Anning's ears moved and she heard Zhou Ran's voice again, which was already far away.
"Bah!"
"Old bitch..."
"It certainly can't be the old bitch named Fang who did it alone."
"At least two people."
"I usually stay with this old witch...Jiang Anning!"
"It must be Jiang Anning!"
There was even a bit more excitement in Zhou Ran's voice.
It seemed that it was a great thing to know that Jiang Anning was also involved in the atrocity just committed against him. "It doesn't matter even if there is no Jiang Anning!"
"Anyway, among the people who often hang out with that old rascal is Jiang Anning."
“There is no one in the village who doesn’t know!”
"Then Jiang Anning gave that poisonous woman Jiang Fang a huge sum of money. Everyone in the village saw it!"
"Chief Jiang's eyes were red with jealousy. He wished he could snatch the money and put it in his pocket, hehehe..."
Zhou Ran's voice was a little excited: "This time, you will definitely reward me well!"
"As long as that old bitch Jiang Fang is arrested, who will know what she has confessed and what she has not confessed?"
"In order to survive, I told lies and deceived the county magistrate..."
As Aunt Fang and the others walked further and closer to the village, Jiang Anning became intermittently unable to hear Zhou Ran's voice.
Jiang Anning couldn't help but suspect that her ears, blessed by [Barrage Reward], could hear sounds from farther away, but there was a limit to the range.
Jiang Anning secretly felt a pity that she couldn't hear Zhou Xian's next words.
However, it can still be roughly inferred from his words that Zhou Ran wants to harm her!
Jiang Anning's eyes suddenly became sharper in the night.
After she separated from Aunt Fang and Sui Ran and went back to their respective homes, Jiang Anning thought about it and climbed over the wall again, took a detour from the backyard, headed towards the path, and ran back to the town, where they had just tied Zhou Ran's sack. .
Fortunately, Zhou Ran had just broken free from the restraints on his hands and hadn't even had time to pull off the sack on his head.
"***Just wait, I will make you pay the price right away!"
Bang!
Jiang Anning approached lightly, waved the thick stick in her hand, and hit the person on the back of the head.
Before Zhou Ran's harsh words were completely dissipated, his vision suddenly went dark, and he collapsed softly to the ground, unaware of his identity.
Jiang Anning waited for a while and saw that there was really no movement from the man, and even his breathing was very weak. Then he stepped forward, pulled off his belt, and tied the man together with the sack into a rice dumpling shape.
However, where to take people becomes a problem.
After much deliberation, she carried Zhou Ran with one hand, returned to the village temporarily, and placed him in an abandoned building in the village.
Afraid that the person would suddenly wake up and make noise to attract people, he casually grabbed a few handfuls of rotten straw from the straw stack and stuffed it into the person's mouth.
After returning to the house, she felt that the straw stuffing was not secure enough, so she dug out the leftover fish bladder glue she had used the previous year.
After applying a thick layer of fish maw glue on the person's mouth and checking the person's breath, Jiang Anning felt relieved.
At night, Jiang Anning carried a backpack with shovels, hoes, hatchets and other things in it and went to the woods behind.
Following the creek where we caught fish and shrimp that day, we walked deeper into the forest. Gradually, there were no traces of any living people coming and going.
When he reached the depths of the forest and the path was completely gone, Jiang Anning took out a hatchet and chopped off the roots and branches in front of him.
【Why did it suddenly become a wilderness survival column】
【What is the female goose doing?】
A few messages sparsely floated past the barrage. Jiang Anning had no idea and concentrated on cutting down trees, digging pits, holes, and tunnels...
She used cut branches to build a circular tree cage based on the terrain.
After finishing the work, he went home to get the oilcloth and came with Zhou Ran.
She threw Zhou Ran into a circular tree cage, and wrapped a thick layer of oilcloth around the outside of the tree cage, leaving only a bamboo tube on top.
Then, on top of the tarpaulin, shovelful after shovelful of soil was filled.
[I’m going to bury him alive? 】
【This woman is so cruel】
【? Is it possible that there is no brain in the upstairs? Isn't it appropriate to treat someone who wants to kill you, tooth for tooth, eye for eye? 】
[Even if he is a victim, he should not respond to violence with violence! 】
Jiang Anning had no time to pay attention to the quarrel on the barrage.
He concentrated on filling the soil one shovel after another until the excavated soil completely covered the tree cage, leaving only a bamboo tube for ventilation.
The entire earth bag looks like a newly built tomb.
Jiang Anning thought about it, and then, in a decent manner, he cut a wooden sign and placed it on the grave... no, in front of the earth bag.
Looking from a distance, it seems as if a new tomb is really being built here.
After finishing all this work, Jiang Anning was slightly satisfied and left with her things.
When I went back, I also caught some fish and shrimps and caught two big snakehead fish.
It looked as if he got up early in the morning and went to the woods to find food.
"Eh? An Ning, are you up? It's so early... I was just thinking about knocking on the door."
Aunt Fang was standing outside Jiang Anning's house and was quite surprised to see someone coming back from the woods.
"Well, I woke up early, so I thought about walking around in the woods to see if I could find anything to eat."
Jiang Anning shook the big black fish in her hand: "I didn't expect that Xunsi is not bad. I can make boiled fish for lunch."
"Hey, boss Heiyu, you are really lucky."
Aunt Fang was envious, but not jealous.
After a while, Sui Ran also came over.
Seeing Jiang Anning killing fish, she couldn't help but sigh: "These two big black fish must weigh about twenty kilograms, right?"
Same thing, just envy, not jealousy.
Jiang Anning invited them to come over for dinner at noon.
Aunt Fang refused without even thinking: "That won't work. I have to sell rice with Sui Ran at noon."
It can be seen that what happened last night did not affect the two of them much after they slept.
Jiang Anning felt more relieved and her smile became more relaxed: "When you guys come back, auntie, come directly to my house to eat!"
"Aren't you going to come with us later?" Aunt Fang asked doubtfully.
Jiang Anning shook her head and looked to the side, taking a look at the Zhao family's yard: "We have to get rid of this matter quickly, and then go to the county town. There is still a lot of work to do!"
< br>
She promised Mrs. An that she would deliver the cat play screen as promised.
Aunt Fang nodded in understanding: "You have to hold on tight, don't delay your business."
Jiang Anning nodded and said "Yeah".
The three of them drew water from Jiang Anning's well, cleaned the fish and shrimp, and stewed a large pot of rice.
Only then did Jiang Anning realize that during her absence, Sui Ran was cooking at her house and then selling food.
"... We have a small space in our house and many sisters-in-law. Although we have divided the families, we have not left home after all. People from several families share the same kitchen. If I use it to cook, I am afraid I will have to make a profit. Just break the money into eight pieces and give one share from house to house.”
Sui Ran lowered his head in embarrassment, and then explained hurriedly: "But we didn't use you in vain. How much is it? It's just how much I rented your kitchen."
"As well as firewood, I also asked your brother Guicheng to replenish it in double the amount."
"It's just that I never had the opportunity to tell you about this in detail..."
If we look at this matter in detail, they took it upon themselves to occupy Jiang Anning's property.
